Description
Scott and I went up to Silverthorne, Colorado, and climbed the Silver Couloir on Buffalo Mountain. We went up the Silver Couloir and came down the standard route. It's a long climb snow climb on a peak I had seen numerous times but never climbed or hiked. It was a good weather day. The couloir is on the north side of the peak, so the snow was set up nicely. All of these photos are from Scott.
